Kapil Sharma, arguably one of the best stand-up comedians in the country, has complained to Prime Minister Narendra Modi that he had to pay Rs 5 lakh as bribe to the BMC for getting approval for an office in spite of paying income tax regularly.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, reacting swiftly to the tweet, responded to Kapil, asking the details of the officials who asked for the bribe.

“Kapilbhai pls provide all info. Have directed MC, BMC to take strictest action. We will not spare the culprit,” Fadnavis tweeted.
